“…As a corollary of this, engaging regularly and fully (i.e., in an engaged and effortful way) in group exercise sessions will be a key way through which they enact this valued social identity. Speaking to these points, there is evidence that social identification with an exercise group is positively associated with exercise engagement in various contexts, including (a) wellness and fitness groups (Grant, Hogg, & Crano, 2015), (b) parkrun (Stevens, Rees, & Polman, 2019), and (c) jiu-jitsu sports clubs (Rodrigues, Evans, & Galatti, 2019).…”

“…Furthermore, it is noteworthy that the present research adopted a unidimensional approach to assessing group identification. Future work might therefore use one of the many multi-dimensional conceptualizations of group identification (e.g., see Cameron, 2004) to assess the role played by different dimensions of identification in determining exercise engagement (for a demonstration, see Rodrigues et al, 2019). Relatedly, we did not assess relatedness (the third psychological need according to self-determination theory; Deci & Ryan, 1985).…”

This research examined how identity leadership displayed by group exercise instructors is associated with exercisers' class attendance and in-class effort. Group exercise participants assessed their instructors' engagement in identity leadership at baseline before indicating their comfort in the exercise environment, identification with the exercise group, class attendance, and in-class effort four weeks later. Results indicated positive associations between instructors' identity leadership and exercisers' group identification and comfort in the exercise environment four weeks later. Furthermore, results provided evidence of indirect effects. First, identity leadership was associated with members' more frequent class attendance through their stronger group identification. Second, identity leadership was associated with members' greater in-class effort through (a) their stronger group identification, and (b) their greater comfort. These relationships remained significant when accounting for the effect of established motivational predictors (i.e., competence and autonomy). These results point to the role that instructors' leadership plays in promoting physical activity by suggesting that instructors' engagement in identity leadership is associated with exercisers' group-related experiences which, in turn, are a basis for group exercise participation.

“…Because the third subscale, cognitive centrality, has consistently shown poor reliability, we did not use the items from this subscale, consistent with previous sport researchers. 40 Participants responded to these items on a 7-point Likert scale, from strongly disagree to strongly agree. The items were composed to create a global social identification construct: (a) In general, I'm glad to be an athletic trainer for this team, (b) I often regret being an athletic trainer for this team (reverse worded), (c) Generally, I feel good about myself when I think about helping this team, (d) I don't feel good about being an athletic trainer for this team (reverse worded), (e) I have a lot in common with the athletes on this team, (f) I feel strong ties to the athletes on this team, (g) I find it difficult to form a bond with athletes on this team (reverse worded), and (h) I don't feel a strong sense of being connected with this team (reverse worded).…”

Context Considering recent high-profile reports of malpractice and negligence by National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) athletic trainers (ATs), it is prudent to investigate the psychological mechanisms that may influence ATs' ability to justify unethical behaviors. When treating injured student-athletes, ATs may undergo a cognitive process known as moral disengagement, which involves convincing oneself that ethical standards do not apply in a particular context. Objective To explore the psychological factors and traits among ATs that may predict moral disengagement pertaining to allowing athletes to play through injuries. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Online survey. Patients or Other Participants A total of 187 Division I, II, and III ATs from 100 NCAA universities. Main Outcome Measure(s) In addition to the primary outcome variable of moral disengagement, the survey captured the AT's demographic background, sport and athletic training histories, and measures of sport ethic, contesting orientations, commitment, and social identity. Results Cluster analysis was used to identify homogeneous subgroups of participants based on these variables. A 2-cluster solution emerged, with cluster 1 (n = 94) scoring higher in the sport-ethic and sport-contesting orientations but lower in commitment and social identity compared with cluster 2 (n = 93). An independent-samples t test revealed that moral disengagement was highest (t185 = 19.59, P < .001, d = 0.69) among ATs in cluster 1. Conclusions These findings advance our understanding of the psychological processes that may predict moral disengagement of ATs in allowing student-athletes to play through injury. Although additional research is needed to test whether moral disengagement influences return-to-play decisions, we provide initial evidence that ATs who conform to sport norms (eg, “no pain, no gain”) and who tend to view sport competition with a “war-like” orientation are more likely to morally disengage.

“…Before conducting this survey, network boundaries were identified to capture complete network [47], [48]. We employed whole network data collection method for our research, an approach followed by many researcher in the past [49]; [50]. For network synchronization, employees from only core engineering department from both the operators were selected.…”
